Safehouse announces strategic partnership with the industrial equipment specialist EQIN

Safehouse Habitats (Scotland) Ltd has entered into a Cooperation Contract with Netherlands-based EQIN. The contract represents a strategic partnership that will support both Safehouse and EQIN’s growth in north-western Europe, specifically the Netherlands, Germany and Belgium.

Safehouse supplies a range of fully ATEX certified solutions and services. The primary offering is the SAFEHOUSE Habitat, an engineered enclosure that allows hot work to take place safely in hazardous environments.

Directly aligning with Safehouse’s offering, EQIN specialises in the rental, sale and maintenance of a wide range of industrial equipment, with expertise in the supply of ATEX certified technology.

Willem Olgers, Director of International Technical Support at Safehouse said

“We have over 10 years’ experience working internationally in the upstream oil and gas sector and part of our growth strategy is to expand into the mid and downstream markets.

“EQIN’s expertise and local market knowledge are a perfect fit for Safehouse’s offering and long term growth plans, and the partnership will support our efforts to enter into new markets. We are confident this new relationship will allow us to provide added value to the industrial sector.”

Hennie Roebroeks, Commercial Director of EQIN said

“At EQIN we are passionate about safety and all of the technology and equipment we deal with is fully compliant with all safety regulations as a minimum. We have been trying to source a safe solution for welding in hazardous environments for quite some time, and following a live demonstration of the SAFEHOUSE Habitat and its capabilities we recognised the opportunity to partner with Safehouse.

“The partnership will allow our customers access to fully ATEX certified technology that they can rely on to mitigate risk during hot work activities like welding. I look forward to working with Safehouse to grow both businesses and to enhancing EQIN’s portfolio of ATEX certified technology.”
